claudia_karina2024 & The Vote Socialist campaign is putting socialism on the map!

Thanks to the hard work of thousands of volunteers, the majority of people in this country will see socialism on the ballot this November! Additional official write-in states are still to be announced!

The two-party system makes it incredibly difficult for third party candidates without huge financial resources to access ballots in some states. No matter what status your state is, we encourage supporters to get involved and help build the movement for a future by and for the people beyond the ballot box!

Whether you can donate your money your time, or both - we need your help.

Visit @votesocialist2024.com/volunteer to learn how you can get involved!

Are there any socialist candidates that are pro- gun rights and Ukraine?

As far as I can tell, the PSL opposes Russia's invasion of Ukraine and doesn't have a position on gun control.

Here's PSL's statement on Russia and Ukraine.

An excerpt:

While we do not support the Russian invasion, we reserve our strongest condemnation for the U.S. government, which rejected Russia’s legitimate security concerns in the region with total intransigence that they knew could provoke such a war. This is the consequence of decades of U.S.-NATO bullying and humiliating Russia. The Party for Socialism and Liberation demands that the U.S. government and its allies in the imperialist NATO military alliance immediately cease their provocative behavior designed to escalate the crisis and provide security guarantees that can be the foundation for the restoration of peace — the cornerstone of which must be a pledge to end NATO expansion. This is what can bring relief to the people of Ukraine.

Standard leftist take.
